“Is this old man a con artist? There’s no blood on the ground. How did he faint?”

“He probably saw that the owner of a car is a boss and wanted to extort money from him.”

“It’s possible. This old man doesn’t look young. If he has a hard fall, for the rest of his life… Tsk, tsk, tsk.”

“Ah, this man must be in big trouble then.”

Wang Sheng’s face was ashen as he looked at the old man who had fallen in front of the car. A large crowd of people had gathered around him to watch the show.

When he heard that this person might be a con artist, Wang Sheng’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly got out of the car to check, and Yun Jin followed suit.

He saw a tall and strong old man lying on the ground, motionless.

There was a dent on the panel of Wang Sheng’s car.

Wang Sheng squatted down and tried to wake the old man up. Yun Jin immediately stopped him. “Don’t move. If he’s already injured, you might hurt him further if you touch him.”

Yun Jin reminded Wang Sheng who quickly withdrew his hand but he suddenly saw the old man’s face.

Wang Sheng was so scared that he sat back and fell to the ground.

“Old…Old Master Zheng!”Wang Sheng’s voice trembled with shock and fear.

Yun Jin’s eyes widened. “He’s Old Master Zheng?”

Wang Sheng did not have the time to respond to Yun Jin. He picked the old man up in a flurry and rushed to the hospital where he had just left from.

Yun Jin shouted twice. When she saw Wang Sheng’s back gradually disappearing, she gritted her teeth and followed him.

What was even more unfortunate was that the emergency rescue room was full. It was said that a bus was involved in a collision and many passengers were injured.

Old Master Zheng was lying on the bed in the resuscitation room but the doctors and nurses were very busy and did not have time to look at Old Master Zheng.

Wang Sheng pulled a nurse who was scurrying with bottles of medicine in her arms and begged, “There’s an old man here, please help to take a look at him. He was hit by a car just now.”

The nurse looked over and found that Old Master Zheng did not have any wounds on his body but the patients who were being treated were all badly mutilated.

Hence, the nurse said, “There are patients who have to be treated more urgently. Wait here for a while.” After saying that, she quickly ran away.

Wang Sheng saw that although Old Master Zheng did not have any external injuries, his lips were purple and his body was shaking from time to time. It was obvious that the situation was not good.

He could only sit outside the emergency room with a chagrined expression on his face, occasionally pulling his hair.

He had faced accidents one after another. First, his son had almost died. It was not easy for his son’s life to be saved, but now, he had hit Old Master Zheng with his car.

Should anything untoward happen to Old Master Zheng, how could his family live?!

Yun Jin caught up with him, panting heavily. She finally managed to catch her breath and said, “How is Old Master Zheng?”

Wang Sheng saw Yun Jin and suddenly seemed to see hope. He hurriedly said, “The doctors don’t have the time to treat Old Master Zheng. Miss Yun Jin, can you take a look at Old Master Zheng? I… I really have no choice.”

“Where is he?” Yun Jin interrupted Wang Sheng’s nagging and asked.

Wang Sheng got up from the ground and brought Yun Jin into the emergency room.

Perhaps the medical staff was too busy, but no one chased Yun Jin and Wang Sheng away.

Yun Jin’s expression immediately changed when she saw Old Master Zheng’s lips. She hurriedly said, “He had a sudden heart attack!”

She pressed on grandfather Zheng’s wrist and carefully counted the pulse for the next minute. Then she said, “He’s in V-fib.”

Wang Sheng felt that his breathing was about to stop. Although he did not understand what v-fib was, hearing that it was a heart attack was enough to scare him.

After all, in this era where the field of medicine was not considered developed, a sudden heart attack was a fatal disease that could not be cured.

“Is… is there still a way to save him?” Wang Sheng did not know how he managed to ask that question.

Just as Wang Sheng was in despair, he surprisingly saw Yun Jin frowning and nodding. “There’s still a way to save him.”

Wang Sheng thought he had misheard. Then, he saw Yun Jin open her small bag again and take out a plain wooden box.

Yun Jin carefully opened the box. There were more than ten silver needles of different sizes neatly placed inside.

Yun Jin said without turning her head, “Uncle Wang, see if there’s anything that can block the wind. Please block him from the surroundings.”

As she spoke, she took out a silver needle and roasted it with a lighter, quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly.

Old Master Zheng suddenly began to convulse even more violently. Yun Jin’s eyelids did not even twitch. The next ten or so needles were inserted faster and faster.

Old Master Zheng seemed to have been struck by an electric current. He trembled violently for a while, and then he suddenly calmed down.

At that moment, Wang Sheng could only be obedient. He looked around and found an unoccupied cubicle curtain. He immediately ran over but was stopped by a doctor.

“Who are you? This is the emergency room. Family members are not allowed in!”The doctor pointed to the door and said, “No matter how anxious you are, you have to go out and wait. We will inform you if anything happens.”

Wang Sheng waved his hand anxiously. He had no time to explain. He grabbed the curtain and ran towards Yun Jin.

The doctor looked over and happened to see Old Master Zheng’s body trembling rapidly.
